Flashback Friday...memorable toys

So, all you '80's children out there, remember any of these toys?



Miss Piggy and Glowworm aren't the only two doll toys that I loved. I'm sure that if you searched my grandma's attic at home you'd find a Strawberry Shortcake, a Rainbow Brite, My Little Ponies, Barbies, and a box full of musty Cabbage Patch dolls. My sister and I didn't go anywhere without our Cabbage Patch Doll and our "diaper bag." We loved to pretend to be moms and to try to imitate our own mom, who stayed at home with us while we grew up and was there for every REAL diaper change, sickness, achievement, disappointment, and "boo-boo." Some day my sister, Tawnee, and I will become real moms and have to trade our dolls in for real-live babies. But for now, it's fun to just think back and remember all those toys of the '80s. Hmmmmm, I wonder if that glowworm still glows....
